slow-paced

3.5

I really enjoyed this book up until the last third of the book. It took a turn I wasn’t really expecting, but not necessarily in a good way.

The other two-thirds of the book were extremely atmospheric. It is definitely slow and akin to gothic horror, so if you prefer something more fast-paced this may not be the best choice.

There were some really creepy themes, as well as unreliable narrators, which I love. However, it had some parts that were just weird - and not in a good, creepy way. 

Overall, I enjoyed it for the most part, I just was a bit let down by the ending.
